~ The warm friends of Thurman all
over Ohio-and their name is legion-will go
to the polls in November and teach General
Tom Powell "a lesson in party politics, by
voting Democratic ticket with Joseph b.
Foraker s name in the place where his ought
to be- Wauseon Tribune.
The idea of Democrat voting for Blather-
skite Foraker, is ridiculous. No Democrat
will so far forget himself as to cast a single
vote for the thing now holding the high Office
of Governor of Ohio, who has in his rawlings
stigmatizedI the 100000 Democrats of the
State "rebel sympathizers" and dirty
Democrats" and who has time and again in
suited the chief magistrate Of the country,
even comparing him to a whipped spaniel"
and like unbecoming expressions. There is
no feeling between the friends of Thurman
and. Powell, as there is no occasion for it,
On the contrary Judge Thurman has express
ed himself as highly pleased with the nomi-
nation of Mr.. Powell and has signifed his
intention of doing all in his power to elect
him. The "Old Roman, sent the following
telegram, when he found chat his infermities
would not allow him to be present at the big
Hamilton meeting last week, which does not
look much like he is skulking: .,,s.
81 greatly regret that I cannot attend your
meeting tonight. It would give me much
pleasure, to speak to the Democracy of Butler
inbehaif. Of the good cause and of Powell
and the rest of the ticket, but am not well
enough to leave home. AZ

~ Gov. Foraker again erdeared himself
to his comrades at Wheeling. Columbus
Journal. -
Yes, with vengeance he did, Just about
likesbe 'endeared himself to the 10th Reg't
boys when he spoke to them while they were
campinga at Port Clinton, turning his talk to
the boys into a political harrangue, which
thoroughly disgusted them, both Republicans
and Democrats, and many of the Republican
boys now express themselves in unmeasured
terms against Foraker; denouncing him as a
political demagogue who is trying to suborn
the soldier vote to his own selfish ends, The
boys will slash him as he deserves in Novem-

that Governor Foraker recommended a re-

his opinion, pay enough taxes.-Bryan Dem.

q No intelligent Democrat will be big
enough fool to make the above assertion, as
Gov. Foraker is in favor of cutting down the
appraisment of farms.-SignGl.
The Signal is not silly enough to believe
that Foraker was in favor Of outing down
the appraisment of farms, and neither Is its
readers. Why, because both know better,
for they have read Foraker's message, which
is recorded in the Senate Journal of 1856, on
pages 359 to 1868, all down in black and white.
But dishonest Republican editor would use
his columns to deny that Christ was ever born,
if he thought it would help his party, but facts
are facts, and they are what the Democrats
are giving the people in this campaign.

Eg The Democrats in Henry county are
at war with each other and the gap is daily
widening.-WGuseoR Tribune.
All in your mind. The Democrats of
Henry county are not to be led astray on lit
tie side issues, but are wide-awake to the i'm
portance of the campaign and the election in
November. They do not intend to let
personal spites or grievances, or the rawlings
of probably a few soreheads, come between
them and their duty toward overthrowing
the Foraker dynasty. They are going to
work for the whole ticket from top to bot
tom in order that their full share may be
given towards ridding the people of the State
of one of the most extravagant administra-
tions it has ever had, and which is crying for
more money to carry it on-even to revalua-
tion of farm lands before the decenial period
in 1890, that more money may be raised by
taxes paid in by the farmer. Not only is
Democrats going to work in harmony to
overthrow this state Of things, but there will
be hundreds of honest Republicans who will
assist them. Mark our words well, Mr.
Tribune. E

~ What's the, matter with Uncle Dave
Harpster and his fellows of the Ohio Wool
Growers Association that they should inveigh
so bitterly against the Democratic party for
the reduction of the tariff on wool? Don't
they know that the reduction was recon-
mended by a Republican President in his
message, to Congress and by Republican
Tariff Commission; that the bill making the
reduction was passed by a Republican Senate;
that the bill could not have passed had not
Senator John Sherman voted for it, and final
ly that it was signed by Republican Presi-
dent?-Seneca Advertiser. -.

~ Every one who has studied the subject
Of taxation knows that personal property, un-
der existing methods of taxing, escapes its
fair share of public burdens. The great
problem now is, indeed, to arrive at some
system of levying and collecting taxes which
will relieve real estate Of its unjust burden.
The Little Joker Governor, who passes as a
great inancier and has during his short term
of Office twice bankrupted the state, has a
funny little scheme for obviating the diff
Guilty by socking more taxes onto real estate,
a sort of pouring oil into the fire to put out
NOr1rak Erneriment.

% Lord, how this world is given to lying!
especially Democratic papers. They have
warmed over that old campaign lie that Gov.
Foraker in his annual message recommended
an increase of the tax burdens on the farm
land of the State.-Republicdn Er.
The lying is all done by the Republican
papers, who are trying to make people be-
lieve that instead of increasing the taxes
Foraker was in favor of reducing them, in
the very face of the facts set forth in his
message Of 1885, in which he not only rec
commended a revaluation of farms but an
increase of the tax rate, to meet the extrava-
CANT appropriations of Republican Legisla-
ture ruled over by Bob Kennedy and his re-
volutionists. Go to the Republican papers
for lying, smut and fraud! sr.a .-.

Logic FarmersC Can Appreciate.

Last year in Ohio 5000 parcels Of land
we're soId for taxes, yet notwithstanding tIiis
and the most open and notorious conceal
ment Of personal property to avoid taration,
Foraker wants reyaluation of Ohio land for
the reason, as he says, that land does not pay
its full share of taxation. Formers are the
men most interested in this projected change,
and it is TO their advantage to see that no
additional burden is placed on the land, but
to ask that increased means Of reaching con-
cealed personal property and making it pay
its fair share of taxation, be placed in the
hands of the assessors.-AshldndP Press.

~ Some Republican nevspapers perceive
that the time has gone by when the discussion

lof the United States as the Republicans, and
if they do an unwise thing they will have to
suffer just the same as their political Oppo-
nents.a Therefore. the sooner that the high
tariff papers descend from the American
bird, and discuss these questions on busi-
ness and common sense basis the better for
all concerned. As long as they designate the
DemocreSy as Aswreckers Of business" just
so long wilD Dconseryatiye people laugh and
say: "'That is absurd, for the Democrats
Just for the sake of revising the tariff, are moi
